Chapter 119: Victor against Bayern

"Whew-"

Tang Zheng's non-stop long ball pass with the instep made Dortmund's attack suddenly brighter, and the home fans in the stands erupted in huge cheers. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Piszczek faced Tang Zheng's long pass with the outside instep and chose to go forward without stopping the ball, which is commonly known as a stop-and-go pass.

Dabo didn't expect Piszczek, who had been very stable before, to choose such a reckless stoppage, so he was shaken off by Piszczek so that central defender Navarro had to pull out to make up for it.

Borussia Dortmund's attacking players Barrios, Grosskloitz, Kuba and Shaheen all fired at Sevilla's back.

Groskloitz, Barrios and Kouba are at the front of Sevilla's backline.

Since Piszczek is the closest to the baseline, the top three are not offside.

Goalkeeper Palop looked very nervous, his eyes widened, and he directed his team-mates' selection while staring at Piszczek who cut into the inside line.

As a seasoned veteran, he realised there was a serious problem at the back.

If you are not careful, you may lose the ball!

Piszczek on the run glanced up at the box and looked like he could cross at any moment.

Barrios, who was in the middle, suddenly changed direction and ran to the front point, and Kuba, who was originally in the front point, made a big turn and headed towards the far end.

Grosskreutz ran from far to the middle, leaving Sevilla's backline in a mess and not knowing who to follow.

Piszczek picked up his right foot as he approached the edge of the penalty area, and the pulled out centre-back Navarro subconsciously stretched his leg to block, but Piszczek did not cross, and his picked up right foot quickly put down and pushed the ball forward.

Fortunately, Navarro had a back hand, and his subconsciously stretched right leg was not recklessly fully raised, and he retracted it while Piszczek pushed the ball forward, and did not lag Piszczek much behind by virtue of the advantage of jamming the inside line, but directly stuck Piszczek's direct cross route.

However, Piszczek had already entered the box from the right side of the attack, and Navarro did not dare to make obvious foul moves, so he could only eat the stuck position of the old Ben.

At this time, Dortmund's attacking players and Sevilla's defenders were entangled together, desperately squeezing positions.

Seeing that he was about to get close to the baseline, Piszczek picked up his right foot again.

Navarro has a lot of defensive experience and he knows Piszczek is going to get serious.

So Navarro spared no effort to slide to the ground, expanding the defensive area and trying to block the cross with the best chance.

In the usual way of play, Piszczek would have passed the ball high to the middle of the penalty area, and the center forward would have completed the head.

However, this is not the case with Dortmund's attacking routine, as Sevilla FC are now understaffed in the penalty area and the defensive system is at its weakest since the start of the game, with more than 50 per cent chance of scoring as long as the ball is sent to a dangerous place.

When Navarro made a reckless down-to-the-ground block, he regretted it.

Because Piszczek's cross was not towards the middle of the box, but an inverted triangle.

Sevilla's defenders were understaffed in the box, and the players who made up for it were all focused on Grosskreutz, Barrios and Kuba, so that Shaheen was left unmarked.

In the face of Piszczek's inverted triangle pass, Shahin, who had just stepped on the line of the penalty area, adjusted his pace and then completed the shot with the panicked expression of the Sevilla defender.

"Shahin!" Yang 5 commentator Ho Wei shouted hysterically, "Shoot-"

Goalkeeper Palop kicked on the spot, looked at the incoming ball and subconsciously saved.

Shahin's 14-yard shot was powerful, the kind against the turf, and the angle was tricky.

Even though Palop made a save, he is no longer the same person he was ten years ago, and now he is in his Chinese New Year's Eve, his physical fitness has declined seriously, especially explosiveness.

After completing the save, he could only watch as the ball grazed the tip of his left finger, then rolled into the goal against the inside edge of the goal post and threw it into the arms of the snow-white net.

"Whew-"

The moment the football crashed into the snow-white net, Westfala Stadium seemed to be transformed into a volcanic eruption, and the home team's fans poured down like a crazy gushing magma, quickly sweeping the stadium.

This goal is of extraordinary significance!

It was Dortmund's first home goal in European competition after eight years!

How many eight years are there in a person's life?

In this extremely frenzied atmosphere of the scene, Shahin, who scored the goal, was particularly excited, and he excitedly spread his arms, like an eagle soaring in the sky, spreading his wings and flying high.

Behind him was a group of excited teammates.

Jurgen Klopp, who was standing on the sidelines, once again showed his presence, raising his fist in excitement and slamming it out.

Not far away, Sevilla coach Antonio Alvarez had a different expression, his brows were tightly locked, he looked up at the sky at 45 degrees, and pursed his mouth, very unhappy.

Westfal Stadium was completely reduced to a sea of joy, with wave after wave of chanting.

Although the goal was ultimately scored by Shahin, the essence of this goal was Tang Zheng's precise long pass with the outside of his instep in his active running.

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif said through a slow-motion replay of the entire goal: "Nuri Shaheen was very good at catching opportunities in the box, but we can't forget the value that Don showed in this attack, and I don't think this goal would have existed without his interspersed runs and precise transfers......

Yang 5 commentator He Wei proudly shouted: "Shaheen is indeed the biggest contributor to Dortmund's lead at home, but in the eyes of those who understand the ball, Shahin is completely equivalent to a cake eater, and Tang Zheng is the real hero of this goal!!"

As the captain of the field, Tang Zheng patted the shoulder of the goalscorer Shahin and the assister Piszczek very excitedly: "Great!"

Shaheen felt okay, after all, the relationship between them was here, but Piszczek was a little embarrassed.

Strictly speaking, this is the first time he has received a precise transfer from Tang Zheng, and it is also the first time that he has assisted his teammates to score.

Striker Robert Lewandowski, who was on the bench, looked at his national team-mate Piszczek with envy, who had a solid starting position at Borussia Dortmund and was now given the chance to start.

is the only one who is still struggling for a chance to play.

He looked at his national team teammates who were celebrating the goal together, and secretly clenched his fists!

※※※

The game restarted, and it was strange that the visiting Sevilla did not intensify their attack, but started at the same pace as before.

This came as a surprise to Jurgen Klopp, who also specifically told defenders to concentrate on the game.

In fact, Sevilla players are very eager to strengthen the attack, but the head coach Antonio Alvarez's choice is relatively conservative, he is worried about Dortmund's large-scale high pressing + fast counterattack this season.

It's not scary to be behind one goal, it's scary to be behind with multiple goals.

If the game was played at the Pizjuán Stadium, he would have had no fear to ask his players to step up their attack, but at Westfalun Stadium, he didn't have that kind of courage.

The second matchday of the Europa League is only three days away from the German national derby, and technically there are only more than two days of rest, compared to Bayern, who have an extra day of rest, Dortmund is still a little tight.

Therefore, there is no large-scale high pressing, but according to the conventional defensive position, relying on each other's tacit understanding to assist and fill the position.

Until the referee on duty blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was still 1:0

The home team is in the front, the away team is in the back.

The fifteen-minute half-time break was fleeting, and the second half changed sides.

Sevilla's attack was sharper than it was before half-time, but it didn't feel like a breakdown.

Of course, this has something to do with their declining fitness.

It's not just Borussia Dortmund that has to take care of the weekend's domestic league fixtures, but Sevilla as well.

They are currently seventh in the league and are four points clear of the top four, and if they expand further in the next league, they will have to fight for the Europa League next season.

So the second half was a bit more dull than the first.

But that doesn't make a big difference for Borussia Dortmund fans, who need a win and three points.

Considering that this weekend will host national derby rivals Bayern Munich at Westfal Stadium, a midweek Europa League win is acceptable.

Even if you take 10,000 steps back, even if this game is drawn.

After all, the first influence of the Europa League is far less than that of the Champions League, and even the league championship in the minds of Dortmund fans.

The pace of the game in the second half was deliberately controlled by Tang Zheng in favor of Dortmund, and he kept running back and forth with plenty of energy, which made the visiting Sevilla players dare not take it lightly, thus affecting the number of people involved in the attack.

It was only in the final 10 minutes that Sevilla FC showed their sense of death, as they realised that a second straight group defeat would mean a good chance of exit.

But at this time, the situation of the game is difficult to change, and Klopp's substitution is quite timely, using the fresh blood that has just come on the field to quickly stabilize the situation.

Until the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the score of the scoreboard remained unchanged.

Borussia Dortmund lead away Sevilla 1-0 at home.

At the same time, the footage of the live director was given to Tang Zheng again.

Although he did not score or assist in this game, his precise transfer was an early pass and he also contributed well on the defensive end.

It is easy to see from the simple running distance that his contribution is huge.

Therefore, there is no dispute that the best in the whole game is also undisputed!

In addition, the victory in this game also laid the foundation for Dortmund to welcome a strong Bayern at Westfalfa Stadium.

A true start to the new season with eight straight wins......
